According to certain aspects of the invention, term " client devices " and " remote client device " are typically relative to clothes Business device synonym uses, and word " remotely " may indicate that client devices for example is by what network connection coupled with server.
At an aspect of this specification, " client devices " sometimes can be referred to as client computer or vice versa.Class As, " server " sometimes can be referred to as server apparatus or vice versa.
In one aspect, term " local " is relative term with " remotely ", and client devices can be referred to as local visitor Family machine equipment or remote client device, it depends on describing client devices from client-side or from server end. Similarly, server can be referred to as home server or remote server, and it depends on from server end or from visitor Family machine end describes server.If additionally, be described from server end, running on the application on server can be claimed Making locally applied formula, if be described from client-side, then can be referred to as remote application formula.
In one aspect, the equipment being located at client-side ((such as uses and has short model the most in a wired or wireless manner Enclose bluetooth or the infrared ray of (such as 35 feet)) it is directly connected to client devices or the equipment being connected to each other) can be relative to Client devices is referred to as local device, is referred to as remote equipment relative to server.Similarly, the equipment of server end it is located at ((such as use bluetooth or the infrared ray with short scope (such as 35 feet)) the most in a wired or wireless manner directly to connect Connect server or the equipment being connected to each other) local device can be referred to as relative to server, claimed relative to client devices Make remote equipment.
In some respects, server 112 can include store server 104, dns server 106, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server 108, And configuration application server 110.Although server 112 is illustrated to comprise all these server, but in these servers One or more servers 112 that can also be located at outside.In some respects, one or more in these servers can be total to With being combined into individual server.In some respects, server 112 can also be referred to as internal server, because server 112 can To primarily serve the effect coupled through private network (such as enterprise network 114) with client computer 102a, 102b, 102c and 102d. Border 122 can represent the scope of private network, and internal server 112 couples client computer 102a, 102b, 102c within the range And 102d.In some respects, client devices 102c with 102d on identical territory (such as by that represented by dotted line 115 Sample).
In some respects, can the conducting interviews through public network 118 at least partially of server 112.Such as, as in Fig. 1 Shown in, storage server 104 can conduct interviews from public network 118.Therefore, client devices 102e can be via public network 118 couple server 112(such as stores server 104).
According to the various aspects of this subject technology, each client computer 102 all can just run embedding based on windows Image, such as Windows embedded OS (such as Windows Embedded Compact, Windows Embedded Standard,Windows Embedded Enterprise,Windows Embedded POSReady,Windows Embedded NAVReady, Windows Embedded Server etc.), or other suitable embedded images.
It is said that in general, embedded images can include writing filter, it can stop put on embedded images Or multiple change sustainable existence after the client devices running this embedded images is restarted.Such as, embedded images can include writing Enter filter, to allow to put on the one or more changes on the embedded images that wherein write filter has been turned in client computer Equipment is dropped when closing.In certain embodiments, term " is closed " and can be referred to shutdown.In some preferred embodiments, term " close " and shutdown can be referred to.On the other hand, it can include publishing from machine.In certain embodiments, used herein Term " restart " or " boots " can include that wherein user publishes and the most again log in client devices, or client computer sets The standby situation being closed and the most again connecing electricity.In one example, if user new tablecloth is put on operate in specific On embedded images on client devices, then after this particular client device restarts, this new tablecloth is not kept in On embedded images.
Write filter can be activated to assure that user's embedded images not to client devices is made any permanent Change (the such as change of sustainable existence after restarting).It is favourable for starting write filter, because it allows manager to be special Determine the configuration that all embedded images of client devices in system keep unified.If embedding to one of client devices of user Enter image and make change, then only have this specific client devices to need to be restarted to be reset back to by this embedded images and other visitor The original configuration that other embedded images of family machine equipment is consistent.Starting another benefit of write filter, to be that it can stop harmful Change permanently apply (such as after restarting apply) to the embedded images of client devices.Such as, if client computer The user of equipment has surprisingly downloaded the embedded images to client devices and has caused the virus of harmful change, then only have this client computer Equipment needs to be restarted embedded images resets back to not original configuration by viral damage.
But, owing to write filter is activated, it may be difficult to embedded images to be made the phase of sustainable existence after restarting Hope and change.According to certain methods, in order to apply the change of sustainable existence after restarting, software driver to be performed to embedded images Manual installation and/or the firmware upgrade of embedded images, with formed customization have expectation change embedded images.This customization Server end (such as at server 112) can be typically occurred at, and the embedded images of whole customization is configured to client computer (such as client devices 102).Therefore, the customization of embedded images potentially includes the embedded images of whole customization from server 112 are sent to client devices 102, and/or are installed on client devices 102 by the image of whole customization.But, embed figure Picture may be the biggest.Such as, Windows embedded images may need the flash memory of minimum 2 gigabytes (GB) (such as Windows For Embedded Standard 2009) and the flash memory of maximum 4GB (such as Windows Embedded Standard For 7).Therefore, the image transmitting and installing this size is probably unpractiaca, particularly frequently to send out in desired change The when of raw and/or relatively slight or involving a large amount of client devices when.
Such as, 100 cashier's machines are being comprised more than as in the large-scale teller system of client devices, if manager thinks Install on each embedded images to run on each cashier's machine and new go out nanoprogram, then manager may need to build at server The vertical customization embedded images with new cashier's program, then by the embedded images of customization from server send to each cashier's machine with Install.If the embedded images of customization is relatively big, then this image to send each in 100 cashier's machines to can be the numbest Tired.If additionally, manager intends to be modified continually, all may need when making change to embed new customization the most every time Image sends each cashier's machine to.
According to the various aspects of this subject technology, after the starting up (boot up) of client devices 102 starts, Change can be automatically applied to the embedding of client devices 102 in the case of the user of client devices 102 does not interferes On image, so that this change is at user's sustainable existence after client devices 102 is restarted.Therefore, this theme skill One aspect of art is avoided reinstalling on client devices 102 the whole embedded images with this change, and permissible Avoid downloading and/or Large Graph picture being installed to the problem on client devices 102.According to some aspect, configuration file is permissible It is used for being applied on embedded images this change.This configuration file can comprise and on client devices 102 to be applied to The relevant information of one or more desired change.Such as, to could be included for applying this one or more for this configuration file Expect that the instruction changed and this one or more expectations change relevant parameter and this one or more expectations change and are correlated with Driver Information changes relevant application message and/or other suitable information to these one or more expectations.Some side Face, client devices 102 can be from server 112 download configuration file, and/or whenever client devices 102 starting up Configuration change is applied to the embedded images of client devices 102 based on this configuration file.A preferred aspect, by this way Translation profile and applying configuration variation are the most crucial, because the change that foundation configuration file is formed is at client devices The user of 102 is it appear that sustainable existence, even if these changes can't be protected when client devices 102 is closed or publishes Stay (because starting write filter) on client devices 102.This set so that client devices 102 is independent and From supply, thus can advantageously avoid big customization image transmitting and/or be installed on client devices 102.
According to some aspect, configuration file can obtain automatically at server 112.Such as, configuration file can store In storage server 104.In some aspects, storage server 104 can be a part for configuration application server 110.?

The example of the embodiment of subject technology
The aspect of this subject technology makes small business (SMBs) can have lightweight should be for managing based on Windows Thin client.For reaching this target, SMBs can perform four activities: 1) configuration management;2) imaging (imaging);3) Packaging (packaging);And 4) scheduling.The aspect of subject technology provides configuration management for SMBs.One mesh of configuration management Mark is to allow information technology (IT) manager easily configure its thin client based on Windows, and when the shortest They are configured by the interior user for them.At present, this can be completed by the customization in image, wherein said fixed System can be pulled (pull) and be configured subsequently.This can be time-consuming, because image file (such as based on Windows figure As file) the biggest.Additionally, each user may frequently be customized changing, the most this time-consuming process may require that weight Carry out again.The aspect of subject technology provides configuration management, the most only single image from factory to be installed to thin client On, the most all customizations from single configuration file rather than can release (push) whole image.
According to some aspect of this subject technology, configuration management people can provide out-of-the-box to experience (out of box Experience), supportive and personalization.Experience about out-of-the-box, when IT manager receives Embedded thin client (such as Windows Embedded thin client) time, client directly starting up can enter Windows, and by all global configuration from The source of Local or Remote is shifted onto on Windows thin client.The image (via OS) that client can also be configured by output Or by using config editor to apply (such as configuration application module 404 and/or 504) to set up joining of its selection relevant Put.In some aspects, image need not be upgraded so that any general utility functions sex work by user or IT manager.
About supportive, IT manager can keep supporting the overall situation in the whole support life cycle of thin client Or the change in user's configuration.Once the support life cycle about specific user is over, and this still goes for appointing What is the need for the configuration change wanted.Provide and allow IT manager to keep following the trail of the configuration change made on a particular device easily Feature.Additionally, except with this device-dependent configuration in addition to, IT manager can also change the policy in this client computer, and it is It is exclusively used in and takes into account motility and the configuration management side of Error Tolerance.
About personalization, when user signs in in his/her IT environment, thin client can be in this locality and/or from net The configuration of the appointment specification (profile) of the user adding territory collected by network.The size of space of OS, equipment and network settings (granularity) user can be allowed to have the most personalized experience on thin client.Thin client is signed in user Time upper, user can be productive because user specify enterprise or preferably configuration can be by spending little downtime Or do not spend be employed downtime.
Following scenario can be achieved by subject technology.In the first scene, manager is responsible for three thin clients.He Open a thin client, and (such as, he can change tablecloth, RDP via TS to configure this client computer according to his expectation Connect and IE collection).He can be with output profiles, and (it can e.g. store clothes to place it into ftp server Business device 104 and/or configuration application server 110) on.Then he can open other two client computer, via Ethernet cable Connect them, and be energized to the two client computer.Remaining the two client computer can be captured at ftp server by DHCP The configuration of upper issue.
In second scenario, manager has three thin clients, and they have been energized and have had been added in territory.? It is respectively directed to three users and sets up three independent configuration files.These configuration files have tablecloth different from each other, RDP connects (via TS) and IE collection.This configuration file can be placed in ftp server by manager, and (it can e.g. store server 104 and/or configuration application server 110) upper relative users dedicated folder in.He can step on as three different users Record in these three client computer.Each of which in these three client computer can capture user's configuration that this user is special.
In the 3rd scene, manager can receive at user and support to require to increase new browser collection folder, with And reduce display resolution (such as reducing to 1280x1024 pixel).Manager can obtain certain user profile, and utilization is joined Put trapping module 504 it to be opened, display resolution is changed into desired display resolution, and adds web browser receipts Hide folder.Manager can preserve this configuration, and corresponding configuration file is put into ftp server, and (it can e.g. be deposited Storage server 104 and/or configuration application server 110) on the dedicated folder of this user.Then manager may require that use Family is published and is logged on.Promoted user sets and DHCP then can be utilized to be captured by the thin client of user.
In the 4th scene, manager can receive another at the user identical with the 3rd scene and support requirement.This use Family may not like new resolution, and requires to re-apply old resolution.Then manager may require that user opens Control panel small routine (such as user-interface application module 1500), clicks on configuration history hurdle (configuration history Tab), the configuration history before click, and click on application so that the setting recovery of user be before configuration.
In the 5th scene, user has mobile thin client, and wants from its configuration of its family network access.For reality This point existing, the configuration file person of being managed of specific user be placed on (on DMZ) http server (such as this comprise with The configuration that user.xml is identical).User can sign in on his thin client (can be such as laptop), and waits Client computer connects home network wirelessly.Recently the user that upgrades set can on home network by HTTPS by Mobile thin client captures.
In the 6th scene, user the most permanently changes his job site, and is just no longer necessary to him At the thin client used.Therefore, manager is recoverable to this client computer.Manager can be that another new user is to identical visitor Family machine configures.Manager can open separate configurations manager (such as configuration application module 404 and/or 504), and pin This specific new user is made relevant change (such as to RDP, IE, setting that tablecloth is relevant).By separate configurations, manager sets up Or the configuration file of editor may indicate that and applying from before the setting of this particular profile, thin client wipe any it Front setting.This configuration file can be copied on usb key (key) by manager, opens control panel small routine, selects defeated Enter config option, select local option, it is intended that the path of configuration file, and click on " Import " button.In this case, The configuration of existing thin client can be wiped free of, and can apply newly configured from usb key in this locality.
According to some aspect, Windows thin client can be by DHCP, DNS and/or other suitable method from remotely Position (such as ftp server and/or http server) obtains and applies configuration.Additionally, manager can be allowed through IP Address or title arrange the position of FTP or http server.When applying to configure (and therefore system mode changes), Suitable message (the balloon prompting of the bottom right of the system tray of such as OS) can be displayed to the user that.
In some aspects, when obtaining configuration from remote location, use DHCP can be given tacit consent to.If DHCP is not via acquiescence Option-tag works, then can use the position (such as by IP address or title) of regulation in client computer.If even client computer The position of middle regulation does not works, then can apply the setting of local acquiescence.
According to some aspect, thin client can also possess allows manager utilize the user interface provided by operating system In locally configured client computer and in this locality, this configuration is exported the ability on flash memory or usb driver.
According to some aspect, in default situations, the configuration of upgrading can be pushed to configured by configuration management side Equipment on.These upgradings can be the subset of complete configuration.When pushing promoted configuration, only for a part for upgrading Those settings can change, do not change the integrality of equipment simultaneously.In some aspects, just it is being pushed on thin client Configuration can also can reset the configuration on (such as " wiping ") thin client, then applies new configuration.This is specific joins Put and can depend on " replacement " label from configuration definition file.These features can realize by such as Application way S900.
In some aspects, configuration history can be presented in face of the manager of each thin client.This can be specific thin The distinct configuration that nearest 5 successes in client computer apply, but can in configuration history (such as configuration history file folder 416) To deposit more or less of configuration.Manager can select any configuration represented as a part for configuration history, And successfully it is applied.Configuration history can store the configuration of the user about adding territory and does not join domain.According to some side Face, any two configuration in configuration history is all different (such as, if identical configuration file is applied to repeatedly On identical thin client, then can store the different entrances similarly configured in configuration history, and have only to the institute that upgrades Apply the timestamp of configuration).
According to some aspect, can be allowed for applying to be most recently successfully the option of the configuration of applying.In some aspects, permissible There is provided set up for IT manager, check and edit/application of upgrading configuration (such as configuration application module 404 and/ Or 506), with by providing human-readable form to guarantee to be readily used for for all setting and much set/configuration Work together.

Above-mentioned definition can illustrate that gatewayCredentialsSource can using 0,1 or 4 as it in xml Value.Other value any can cause the authentication failed of xml configuration file.
According to the various aspects of this subject technology, for control panel small routine (such as Pyramid) it is possible that under Row use scene: 1) USB driver transmission (such as Mini Tissue);And 2) independence/remote mode.Drive at USB pen In dynamic device transmitting scene, enterprise is probably small units, and may be restricted in financial resources.In this case, Control panel small routine can be used for configuration equipment.Such as, equipment can be configured by manager according to particular requirement.Pipe Reason person may want to this be configured on other 10 thin clients.Therefore, manager can open control panel small routine, By in configuration output to USB driver, this usb driver is inserted on another thin client, and utilizes control panel little Program inputs this configuration.
In independence/remote mode scene, it may be necessary to from remote repositories, multiple client computer are configured.This In scene, manager can select long-range option () shown in such as Figure 15 A like that, and inserts and remote I P and remote path phase The data closed.Manager can select FTP, HTTP or HTTPs, and clicks on " Download and Apply " button.These Setting can be saved after clicking on " Download and Apply " button.If this configuration will be at client devices 102 Start is after-applied every time, then can enter " setting (Persist settings on reboot) of sustainable existence when restarting " Row checks.In one example, the remote path of acquiescence be<ftproot>Wyse WES7.
According to some aspect, it is provided that independent utility (such as configuration application module 404 and/or 504), it is started from scratch Generate configuration file.This application can also be used for editing existing configuration file.The configuration file set up/edit can be by For applying this configuration under stand-alone mode or remote mode.
According to some aspect, such as it is also referred to as Hagent_UI.exe in this article to recover module 408() permissible It it is the engine that runs when starting of client devices 102.This engine can [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software Wyse ConfigMgmt] or other suitable depositor under check register value.Depending on agreement, engine can input joins Put.If agreement is local, then ActiveXML is it can be mentioned that the path of XML configuration file to be applied.If XML configures File is present on this path, then can input configuration.
According to some aspect, if agreement is FTP or HTTP, then following order can be used for obtain XML configuration file:
DHCP option (such as method B-1)
The setting (such as method B-3) of UI configuration
The xml document (such as method B-4) of local acquiescence
Engine can check following DHCP label:
DHCPServerTag=161
DHCPPathTag=162
DHCPUsernameTag=184
DHCPPasswordTag=185
DHCPProtocolTag=183
According to some aspect, except DHCPServerTag, other labels all may each be character string type. DHCPServerTag may be configured to " IPAddress " type.
If aforementioned DHCP option is not configured, connection failure, or configuration file is the most on the server, then engine may Failover is to the remote setting arranged from control panel small routine.If this remote setting is not configured (such as from chain of command Plate small routine), connection failure, or configuration file is the most on the server, then and engine can retreat to locally stored WES7Config.xml。
Such as, on the server, utilize IIs, it is assumed that manager by C: Pyramid be set to virtual directory.Then engine can be pre- Meter Wyse WES7 file be present in C: under Pyramid.Therefore, if selecting HTTP or HTTPs and if logged on being this locality And not specified path, then engine can C: Pyramid Wyse find the configuration of entitled WES7Config.xml under WES7 File.If path be designated, then engine can C: Pyramid Wyse WES7<path>lower searching WES7Config.xml.For territory logs in, engine can be found<user.xml>.
In some aspects, if not mentioned agreement in DHCP protocol option (such as give tacit consent to 183), then can consider HTTP.In some aspects, if not mentioned username and password in DHCP option label, then anonymous login can be considered. According to some aspect, port can be considered according to agreement.Port can be 21 for FTP, for HTTP can be 80, can be 443 for HTTPs, but other port value can also be used.
According to the various aspects of this subject technology, in the scene of local user and territory user, user can or this Ground logs in, or performs territory login.In some aspects, this scene can only be tested under remote mode.Some side Face, if user performs local log-on, then the configuration file downloaded from remote storage server can be WES7Config.xml. In some aspects, if user performs territory and logs in, then<username>.xml file can be downloaded and apply.
